Åreskutan & Åre Ski Resort
Åreskutan
The largest ski resort in Scandinavia. From the 1,420-meter summit of Åreskutan, you look over the lake valley and surrounding peaks, with close to a hundred runs.
Åre Ski Resort is run by SkiStar. Centered on Åreskutan, it also includes the Duved, Tänndalen and Björnen areas, for a total of about 90 runs and more than 40 lifts. The greatest vertical drop is about 890 meters. The resort has hosted the Alpine World Ski Championships three times. Near the summit stone hut, you can look out to the mountains along the Norwegian border. Some lifts also run in summer, and you can hike to the top. A winter lift pass costs about 600 Swedish kronor per day. During peak season, especially February during Swedish school ski holidays, book accommodation well in advance.
